Perry Wins National Championship in 60m Hurdles, Takes Second in Long Jump

Ursuline College junior Janelle Perry captured her second career National Championship at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships held in Pittsburg, Kansas over the weekend.
 
Perry, who won her first National Championship last May in the 100m Hurdles at the NCAA Outdoor National Championships, won the 60m Hurdles on Saturday evening with a time of 8.22 seconds.
 
Her time of 8.22 seconds, a personal best, is the ninth fastest time ever in NCAA Division II history.  Along with the National Championship, she earns All-American status for the sixth time in her career.
 
On Friday, Perry finished second in the Long Jump, which made her a five-time All-American, with a jump of 6.19m (20-3 ¾ feet).
 
The National Championship capped off a weekend in which Perry was named the USTFCCCA Midwest Region Track Athlete of the Year after she scored 35 points at the Great Midwest Indoor Conference Championships in late February.
